That specific flaw was fixed some time ago, Dan - in 'Blacklist #6'.
Whether that fix ever made it to the pirated version on www.toniarts.com is another matter! -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2006, Windows) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.crashfixpc.com/millsrpch.htm http://tinyurl.com/6oztj Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's "Dapper Dan" wrote in message ... Further to Noel's comments, Ben, you should be cautioned that there exists some sort of flaw in this utility that seems to affect Windows Me only. You may have to come to Mike or Noel with cap in hand requesting the fix. Other than that, it's a neat little utility that has served me well over the years.

Hello, Over the past week I have been attempting to use a freeware new to my system - "ToniArts Easy Cleaner". In the beginning the downloaded\installed program would, when executed, cause a complete freezing of my system requiring the use of the improper shutdown. Using the manual Scan Disk revealed the FSInfo error(s) in the Boot sector. I have download each of the offered types - the exe file and the zip. I was able to install with the former and run the program. But at some point in my exploration of the menu the freeze occurred. I reverted to downloading the zip. Today this allowed me to create a desktop shortcut without freezing - but the exploration again had that effect. I have never had this problem with any other freeware. Without using this installed freeware my system operates normally and without error. Advice on how I might search out and rectify this incompatibility appreciated. Ben. |

Dan, hello,
I appreciated your remarks. It is working now but I don't know how come! I will play with it until the next freeze and then say farewell. Cap in hand I like. The folk bearing those names you mentioned have given me cuffs around the ears down the years - but behind the cap in hand lurks a tiger, one mistake on their parts and I shall be merciless!
